School District on its good attendance record for the month of
October.

been placed in the City's CIP program.

at options and had held informal discussions regarding the
property.
F. District/County/City Tax Abatement Committee
The Committee was scheduled for one. possibly two more
meetings. A report would be coming after those meetings with a
recommendation. Good progress had been made.
G. Freeport Amendment - The City and District needed'
to determine what stance they were going to take on the
amendment. If no action was taken by January 1, no tax could
be implemented for the next year. If no action was taken by
April 1, the tax could never be implemented. It was suggested
that the Tax Abatement Committee look at this issue. A
possible consideration was to deny the exemption now and work
out possible other arrangements later. A ]oint public hearing
on the issue was suggested.
